It's not just about capacity (80% is still a lot), it's that degraded batteries lose their ability to deliver high current under load—so acceleration suffers and voltage sags under hard pulls. For grid storage, you're doing slow, steady charge/discharge cycles over hours, so the same battery that can't handle aggressive driving anymore works perfectly fine. Plus, grid storage has virtually unlimited space and no range anxiety, so if you need 25% more packs to hit your capacity target, you just stack them in a warehouse where real estate is cheap.
